[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The two different posters who talked about the weird mix of students at Ivies… I wonder if that’s true at other highly rated/hard to get into schools as well.. like Williams, Haverford, etc. I imagine MIT and CMU and other stem focused schools might be different, but maybe the schools that prestige-chasing students/families attend are all that same weird mix. Is it a uniquely Ivy thing? [/quote] No, first, it's not a weird mix. It's the way the top colleges have been for the past 35 or so years. It's diversity, and it's a good thing. And yes, schools like Wlliams, MIT and even CMU will have a similar mix of kids. If your kid has an issue with this kind of mix, then they either need to get out more in the real world or just choose a more homogenous school. [/quote]
